French politician, a foreign minister and lawyer, he served as Prime Minister of the Third Republic in 1913.
He was assassinated along with King Alexander of Yugoslavia on 9 October 1934 in Marseille, France. The political assassination was accomplished by a Macedonian terrorist working with Croat revolutionists.
A ballistic report on the bullets found in the car was made in 1935, but its results were not made available to the public until 1974. The report revealed that Barthou had been hit by an 8 mm Modèle 1892 revolver round, commonly used in weapons carried by French police. Thus Barthou was killed during the frantic police response, rather than by the assassin. This was not, however, the only threat that had hung over Barthou that year: due to a "heart threat", he had had to hand over the interim at the Quai d'Orsay for two months to François Pietri [cf. Souvenir de Barthou, revue des Deux Mondes, François Pietri, 1er mars 1961, pp 65-75]. His injury, to the humeral artery, was not fatal but had caused a severe haemorrhage that had justified sedation (by chloroform) and a transfusion. It was in these circumstances that Louis Barthou succumbed in this state of unconsciousness. It is possible that he had a heart attack following the stress induced by the double trauma.
We will try to see if such observations, which are ultimately bad luck, can be included in his horoscope.

If we consider the MUNDANE system, we observe a sextil aspect of MO.
At the same time, it appears that MO has  dignity of RUL over POF.
So we have two possibilities with our hypothesis : first choose POF for hyleg ; second choose the MUNDANE system and try to find another couple of hyleg/alchocoden,
If we choose now POF we must know that no trad authority agree with this choice
In case of POF is the Hyleg, there is then two candidates to be alchocoden:  and
First, we have to see which candidate has the most dignity: here, MA has candidate alcho dignities referring to POF : [RUL]
First, MO is linked with POF by a [sextil] aspect and a [RUL] dignity,
However, MO is [T cb] and has a power of [-1], and so MO has a bad Kadkhudah score of [6]
MO is located at 147,16° at more than 5° from [Δ degrees cups sup [III] : 6,69° (60)] and has a domitude Regio of : [66,69] for a latitude of [-4,55°]

The traditional almuten (Omar, Ibn Ezra) is ME
we see below the list of dignities for ME :

[ term 2 tri 0 rul 1 exn 1 fac 2 ]
[ su 4 mo 0 asc 0 syg 0 pof 0 ]
---------------------------------------
Note 1 : the ‘almuten figuris’ is the lord of the chart, but its determination obeys somewhat different rules according to the schools. The tradition is based above all on the zodiacal dignities. (see p,e,  Alcabitius, Introduction, 59-61, 117 and Avenezra, Nativites, 101) – almuten = al-mu’tazz (arabic term)
[7] As for the governor which is the <planet> predominating (al-mubtazz) over the birth from which one indicates the conditions of the native after the haylāğ and the kadhudāh,n it is the planet having the most leadership in the ascendant, the position<s> of the two luminaries, the position of the Lot of Fortune and the position of the degree of the conjunction or opposition which precedes the birth. When a planet has mastery over two, three or four positions by the abundance of its shares in them, it is the governor and the predominant <planet> (al-mubtazz) and the indicator after the haylāğ and the kadhudāh. From it one indicates the conditions of the native. Some people use it instead of the kadhudāh in giving life.  [Al-Qabisi , Charles Burnett, Keji Yamamoto, Michio Yano, The Introduction to Astrology, IV, 7, p, 117, Warburg, 2004]
Note 2 : There are at least 4 systems for determining the almuten depending on whether the combinations of triplicities and terms are used: the Ptolemaic almuten (followed by Lilly) with Ptolemaic terms ; the same with Egyptian terms; the almuten of Dorotheus with Ptolemaic terms ; the same with Egyptian terms, knowing that one can embellish the whole thing with different weighting system (like Lilly or not using weights like Montanus) [cf. Temperament: Astrology's Forgotten Key, p. 79, Dorian Gieseler Greenbaum 2005]

The Lilly (Ptolemaïc) almuten is JU

In our experience, it seems that Ptolemy's almuten allows one to first appreciate the static side of the natal chart and that the Lilly-type elaboration allows one to deepen the more ‘temporary’ or ‘dynamic ‘ relationships (cf, Shlomo Sela, Ibn Ezra, on Nativities and Continuous Horoscopy, appendix 6, quot 2  ; Horary astrology p, 458, Brill, 2014)

the lot of Fortune has been computed according to Makransky's method (see 'Primary directions', A primer of calculation by Bob Makransky, 1988, cap X: the Arabian parts, pp. 98-103) [Makransky regio : 103,19°]

About the lot of fortune

As we know, the Lot of Fortune is a fictitious point that has been called the lunar ascendant. It is therefore not a one-off formation like the other stars. I refer first to an article reviewing the contribution of Hellenistic astrology [Dorian Gieseler Greenbaum, ‘Calculating the Lots of Fortune and Daemon in Hellenistic Astrology’, Culture And Cosmos, Vol. 11 no. 2, Autumn/Winter 2007 pp. 163-187. www.CultureAndCosmos.].

'First is the Lot of Fortune which, for those born by day, it will be necessary to count from the
solar degree to the lunar degree, and one must cast out the collected number from the degree-
number of the ascendant, giving 30 degrees to each sign. And where the collected number
leaves off, say that at that place is the Lot of Fortune. For those at night, the reverse, that is
from the lunar degree to the solar. And likewise one must cast out the remainder from the
degree of the ascendant.' [Paul of Alexandria, Introduction, Ch. 23, trans. Greenbaum, Late Classical Astrology, pgs. 41-42]

There is a very interesting article in Wilson’s dictionary [A complete dictionary of astrology, London, 1819, pp. 306-312] where the difficulty of reconciling in mundo (ASC) and zodiacal (SU) positions is clearly highlighted... while knowing that the Moon has both, by its overall trajectory, its latitude... The figure of Placidus is evoked at the same time as that of Negusantius (we recall that Placidus did not really know what to do with the POF until Negusantius developed a method which finally convinced Placidus of the interest of taking the POF into consideration, cf. Primum mobile, Canon of the Part of Fortune). According to Placidus, in fact, the problem that arose until then, in the conception of the POF, related to its calculation on the ecliptic while according to him, this calculation should relate to the conformity of the parallel of MO (and even of the lunar latitude on which the POF should be directed).

The question was taken up by Marco Fumagalli (Cielo et terra site) who wrote a magnificent synthesis on the work of Placidus and Negusantius, defining the very subtle notion of hourly part and using what he calls the 'grado di passaggio' which allows a longitude to be attributed to the POF. [cf. 'Il calcolo delle sorti secondo Placido', Linguaggio Astrale 103, June 1996 and 'La sorte oraria, il vero oroscopo lunare.' (Phôs 2, giugno 2001)]
Thus, to find the position of the part, Negusanzio calculates in oblique ascension the distance between the Sun and the horoscope, and adds to it the right ascension of the Moon. He thus obtains the right ascension of the part, which will always be on the same parallel of declination as the Moon. However, the Negusanzio method finds its limit in the fact that Ptolemy's principle is only valid at sunrise: it is the true - but ephemeral - lunar horoscope.

Fumagalli writes :

'A few years after Placidus' death, when the Coelestis Philosophia of 1675 was reprinted, Francesco Brunacci and Francesco Maria Onorati became aware of the inappropriateness of the Placidian method and proposed a new one. This is the hourly method. Brunacci and Onorati do not speak expressly of hours but of equatorial distances, which we know is the same thing. The calculation retains the same structure but is done entirely on the equator using the oblique ascension of the horoscope and the mixed ascensions (AM) of the luminaries, that is, the AOCH in the ascending hemisphere and the DOCH in the descending hemisphere.' [in 'La sorte oraria, il vero oroscopo lunare.']

It is not easy to find information on the AM (mixed ascensions) mentioned by Fumagalli. Fortunately, there is a booklet that takes stock of these AM in  'Il calcolo delle coordinate dei Cardini e degli Astri di nascita' and which also takes up some of Fumagalli's work.
Ascensione (AOCH) o Discensione Obliqua nel Circolo Orario (DOCH) :

If the star is located to the east of the meridian, we will calculate its
AOCH with the following formulas:
1) for a star above the horizon (i.e. in the 1st quadrant):
AOCH = ARMC + (15 x DH)
2) for a star below the horizon (i.e. in the 4th quadrant):
AOCH = ARIC - (15 x DH)

If the star is located to the west of the meridian, we will calculate its
DOCH with the following formulas:
1) for a star above the horizon (i.e. in the 2nd quadrant):
DOCH = ARMC - (15 x DH)
2) for a star below the horizon (i.e. 3rd quadrant):
DOCH = ARIC + (15 x DH)

It is also difficult to find references on the 'grado il passaggio' and in particular on the double sign which must clearly be used in the formula:

tang theta = sin AOCH /(cos AOCH cos eps ± sin eps tang CH)

where :
- AOCH (or DOCH) is the oblique ascension or descension on part pole (CH)
- eps : ecliptic
- 𝜗 (theta : ecliptic degree of transit )
- ± : if point is oriental, take [-], else [+]

In the horoscope of Louis Barthou, we find :

FORTUNA
ao asc	78,04
am fortuna	83,81
dh fortuna	5,62
ch	41,32
doch fortuna	83,81
ϑ	104,17

So, POF = 104° 10' 26" ♋

- am ⊕ = ao asc + am ☉ (151.66) - am ☽ (145.88)
- dh ⊕ = (RAIC - am ⊕)/15
- ch ⊕ => TAN P = SIN (1/6 DA. DH) . COT DEC. where DA ☽ = 7.77°, DH ☽ = 5.62°
and DEC ☽ = + 8.19°
- doch ⊕ = RAIC - 15*dh ⊕
- TAN(ϑ) = SIN(83.81)/(COS(83.81)*COS(eclip)-SIN(eclip)*TAN(41.32))

Primary directions

1)- 1934

It has been said that the Part of Fortune being a zodiacal place, it can receive aspects from the planets but not give them... In fact it must be treated like the ASC from this point of view. And this is how we find in Barthou's theme the following direction for date of 'accident' : 9 OCTOBER 1934.

We see that ϑ = 104.17°. By direct movement, MO will travel in 4h56 (time corresponding to 72.12 Y, or 5h56min of UT) 2.63°, which will bring its longitude 𝞴 to 149°47' and the degree of passage of the POF ϑ to 101.31°.
We then find:
Direction MA -POF = 102.56° - 101.85° =0.71°

So, at the time of Louis Barthou's accident, we find a potentially problematic direction between MA and POF. Knowing that MA is in X, ruler, with conjunction to 𝛃 Persei (dom regio ♂ 298 and dom regio Algol 301.82), retrograde and with a negative celestial value of [-7]. POF is hyleg, in I and the alchocoden is MO. MO is cb.

The arc is said to be direct; however, never forget that the graphic representation is misleading. If you recalculate the horoscope for 4h 27' UT (i.e. 1h natal + 3h27) corresponding to 50.57 Y, you will immediately understand that the induced movement is solely attributable to the primum mobile.

Petrarch Francesco

HIERONYMI CARDANI - DE EXEMPLIS CENTUM GENITURARUM

I

Francesco Petrarca

(July 20, 1304 – July 19, 1374) was an Italian scholar and poet in Renaissance Italy, who was one of the earliest humanists. His rediscovery of Cicero's letters is often credited with initiating the 14th-century Renaissance. Petrarch is often considered the founder of Humanism. In the 16th century, Pietro Bembo created the model for the modern Italian language based on Petrarch's works, as well as those of Giovanni Boccaccio, and, to a lesser extent, Dante Alighieri Petrarch would be later endorsed as a model for Italian style by the Accademia della Crusca. Petrarch's sonnets were admired and imitated throughout Europe during the Renaissance and became a model for lyrical poetry. He is also known for being the first to develop the concept of the "Dark Ages." This standing back from his time was possible because he straddled two worlds—the classical and his own modern day.

[Cardano, opera omnia t. V, 458 - Junctinus, Speculum astrologiae, 360, Garcaeus, Astrologiae methodus, 62, Gauricus, Tractatus astrologicus, 62]

The lunar position indicated by Gauricus, Junctinus and Garcaeus is 23 ° 36 'PISCES; We note an error (or rather a misprint) in the record of the lunar longitude of Cardano which indicates 3 ° 36 '... Now the lunar longitude is 4 ° PISCES; It seems that Petrarch did not give the right birth date...

Thus we come to the Geniturae, with which we find ourselves back in the old quasi-mythological ambience. We learn from the horoscope of Petrarch that the elegance of his poetry was due to the presence of Jupiter in the house of Mercury, which stood in quadrant (this is odd) with Venus; of Pico, that he was made to have a confused mind (turbidum in gen turn) by the presence of the moon in the eighth house, and that he lacked judgment because the moon was in quartile (quia radiatio quadrata est); of Cardan himself, that he was doomed to be plagued with a weak stomach and brain, plots, enemies, losses of property, abuse, extreme perils, and a bad reputation with the public. We put the book aside at last in a mood of mixed admiration and exasperation, wondering at an intellect which permitted Cardan to correct the ancients freely and yet left him credulous of their most dubious assumptions. Cardan evidently knew of Pico’s attack but may not have bothered to read it. [Occult Sciences in the Renaissance: A Study in Intellectual Patterns, Wayne Shumaker, p. 40, University of California Press, 1979]

To help us in our research, we have a very good article by Dora Bobory, published in 2005: 'An unusual biography: Cardano's horoscop of Petrarch' [in Karl A. E. Enenkel y Jan Papy (edd.), Petrarch and his readers in the Renaissance, Brill, Leiden, 2006, pp. 209-229.]

Gerolamo Cardano was the first to offer a collection of horoscopes ‘of living and recently deceased celebrities [Cardano, De exemplis centum geniturarum, in Opera omnia (note 6) vol. V] in a vivid and even gossipy manner, organising his subjects into logical categories. In the largest collection, containing a hundred gcnitures,” the reader finds horoscopes of political figures, emperors, popes and princes (for example, those of the Medici and Famese families), followed by those of artists (Albert Diirer), literati (George of Trebizond, Francesco Filelfo and Giovanni Pico della Mirandola) and many other well-known personalities of the time preceding or contemporary to his own. Cardano’s horoscope of Francis Petrarch [Fig. 1] appeared in print three times, but the three versions are completely identical. [Cardano, Libelli duo. Unus, de supplemento almanach. Alter, de restitutions temporum et motuum coelestium. Item geniturae LXVII. insignes casibus et fortuna. cum exposition (Nuremberg:1543); Id., Libelli quinque. I. De supplemento almanach, II. De restitutione temporum, III. De iudidis geniturarum, IV. De revolutionibus, V De exemplis centum geniturarum (Nuremberg: 1547) 102-103; and Id., Liber de exemplis centum geniturarum. Opera omnia (note 6) vol. V, 458.] This is in itself a valuable piece of information, since Cardano was in the habit of constantly revising and rewriting or sometimes even annihilating his own works. The fact that Petrarch’s horoscope remained unchanged throughout the decades implies that Cardano was satisfied with this particular chart and its interpretation, and so did not ‘rectify’ the earlier versions.

After describing the positions of the planets in the chart, Cardano lists the main characteristics that he reads in the geniture, one by one, explaining which planet or constellation was responsible for each one of them. He introduces Petrarch saying that ‘there are many distinguishing characteristics in this illustrious person.’ The first of his outstanding qualities is the fine charm of his poems, which made Petrarch famous all around the world, and which otherwise is indicated by the presence of the planet Jupiter in the house of Mercury and in square with Venus. Mercury, as is well known, was traditionally associated with a great sense for languages, while Venus was thought to bring sweetness and delicacy to the way of expression. And, Cardano states, this is the constellation that provided such an elegance for Petrarch’s high literary expression. [Dora Bobory, op. cit., p. 219]

We find in the natal chart the following elements:

• ASC LEO, SU I 
• MC ARIES (MA in CANCER, XII)
• MO VIII (detriment ±)
• MA (CANCER) and JU (VIRGO) detriment +
• opp. JU MO
  

HYLEG : SU
ANAERETE : MA
ALCHOCODEN : SA (?)

Note that the opposition Ju-MO does not necessarily fit in the theme in a pejorative way; On the contrary, it indicates a peculiar characteristic which is expressed in the present case by a singular spiritual tone, and in Petrarch this tone will be that of poetry.

On April 6, 1327, after Petrarch gave up his vocation as a priest, the sight of a woman called "Laura" in the church of Sainte-Claire d'Avignon awoke in him a lasting passion, celebrated in the Rime sparse ("Scattered rhymes"). Later, Renaissance poets who copied Petrarch's style named this collection of 366 poems Il Canzoniere.

So that when Petrarch meets Laura, who becomes her muse, her theme then shows a # VE to the JU-MO group. This direction occured when VE has a domitude of 318° ; which correspond at 64.87° in zodiacal campanus. We compute, so, the direction VE con //MO in zodiaco.

- parameters

- results

The numbers in blue correspond to the zodiacal directions without latitude, the mundane directions are with latitude. In order to respect the comparisons, the same was done for the 'fictitious' directions (3rd et 4th tables, named X-1 and X-2).

---------------

Climateric directions

In 1370, Petrarch has a stroke and died in 1374; The following directions must be calculated: JU conj MA, MO opp MA. There is also a Rp SA || MO and a # VE-SA.

All dates are computed by Morinus with key conv. PTO.

1)- JU conj MA

- parameters

- results

We count 7 primary directions against 5 X directions, with a year correction of 1370.05.

2)- MO opp MA

This is a direction which is easier to obtain by the arc between the Moon's opposition (156.625 °, taking into account the Moon's proper motion of 2.525 °).

- parameters

The latitudes of the promissor AND significator must be taken into account in mundane direction. (See The Progressed Horoscop, Alan Leo, Modern Astrology Office, 1906 - the Art and Practice of directing, Heinrich Däath)

- results



This direction is significantly modified by the latitude of the moon (which causes an overall effect of 5.86 ° as it is notified in this table). In any case, this is a major direction since it affects the anaerete (MA) in connection with the moon (in VIII).
Observe that certain primary directions have a similar value: indeed, the latitude rule requires that:

- the latitude of the significator is used only in the zodiacal directions, so :
 

	Dir – Z
C Regio Campa	63,602
D Placidus	68,428
D Regio Campa	70,740
C Placidus	60,02

The two latitudes (significator and promissor) are used in the mundane direction :

	Dir - M
C Regio Campa	64,91
D Placidus	69,058
D Regio Campa	71,75
C Placidus	60,34

 'In Primary Directions proper, we have both mundane and zodiacal arcs, so called, although in reality they are all mundane or formed by the diurnal revolution of the earth on its own axis, as will be shown later. The distinction consists in this, that whereas the former are measured in the world independent of the zodiac and have to do with the angles, cusps and houses of any figure and are taken with latitude, the latter appear to be measured by zodiacal degrees only, the latitude of the promissor not being taken.' [Heinrich Däath, Art of directing, p. 216, in Alan Leo, the Progressed Horoscop]. 

3)- Rapt parallel MO || SA

Rapt parallel are of great importance: it is likely that they will be able to chant events over the long term or at least radical inflections. Observe that the most precise rapt parallel is that given by the method of Placidus (-0.5 °).

4)- Exercise on a counter-parallel: #MO conj MA

  

We have here a counter-parallel of MO (without latitude) at 25.51° ARIES. Compute directions with conjonction MA and determine mean year of direction.

- parameters

Note that there is uniquely latitude of promissor with this kind of direction.

- results

We find 5 primary directions and two fictitious; Note that the use of the latitude of the promissor with the mundane arcs explain the different results between zodiacal and mundane directions. The year is 1370.86 which corresponds roughly to the beginning of the Petrarch disease.

5)- On April 8, 1341, he became the second poet laureate since antiquity and was crowned by Roman Senatori Giordano Orsini and Orso dell'Anguillara on the holy grounds of Rome's Capitol.

This event that consecrates the life of Petrarch is correlated with a major direction in the life of an individual: JU conj SU.

 It is in fact two directions that must be controlled: the graph shows to see the state of the sky directed in converse mundane direction, with the key PTO (1 °, or standard key). We observe JU conj SU.

 In principle, one of the best directions, but it depends on the layout of the receiving planet. The Sun is very well oriented: it is the hyleg. It is something else for JU that is detrimental. Note that in relation to the base year (PTO) indicated by Morinus (1344), it is the year 1341.12 that is computed here.

Here is also the summary of his thesis on historical questions on astrology (dir (Jean Dhombres, 2003).

The thesis deals with a particular area of ​​the history of science: astrology, with the aim of presenting the opinions of astrology The most remarkable ones proposed by historians on the birth of astrology in the ancient Near East and its development during the Antiquity It is difficult, if not impossible, to establish with precision the beginning of a historiography of the " Astrology, in fact, antiquity itself offers us some examples: for Greece, in particular, the biography of astrologers attributed to Rhetorios, for Islam the summary of Al-Qifti, for the Middle Ages Simon de Phares, for the Renaissance Pic de la Mirandole, for the XVIIth century Claude Saumaise In this work, I chose to take into account that the historiography which has just developed by schools of thought and which has the proper means to evaluate Texts and documents.
